Grants |
The Recruitment and Retention Grant (through the POST Commission) is designed to support making Tennessee the best state for law enforcement in the United States by attracting quality applicants from other states, as well as previously certified and new officers within Tennessee. This program will attempt to hire 1,000 police officers per year until the state’s law enforcement agencies could reduce staffing deficits caused by attrition, as well as provide bonuses to a minimum of 3,000 new law enforcement officers. The TLETA Cost Sharing Grant will help reduce the cost to local law enforcement agencies when a new officer is sent to the Tennessee Law Enforcement Training Academy, and for other training and professional development expenses. This includes three critical areas of assistance for local law enforcement agencies including paid tuition for Basic Police School, daily working uniforms and physical fitness gear, and assistance for incidental training expenses to offset ancillary costs of training new personnel.

Please return your form to POST.grants@tn.gov as soon as possible so your application can be processed in a timely fashion. If you have any questions, you can email POST.grants@tn.gov or call 615-741-8546. |
